Agent API Documentation

I’m trying to find some documentation about creating Agents, and possibly some sample source code.



Does this exist yet? I’m interested in creating a few of these…



thanks!

No documentation exists yet, sorry - I’ll try to get some out as soon as we’re not being slammed by bug reports :slight_smile: You can check out the source code of the existing agents though. They’re stored in “~/Library/Application Support/Plex Media Server/Plug-ins”.

This is the best way to developp you plugin. Watch the IMDB or THETVDB bundlle. The API is very easy to understand. Other clue : watch in system bundle the python file. This is the source of the Plex Media Server core.

Has anyone created an agent that pulls from an RSS feed? It would be great for video podcasts and such. I don’t speak python, but I imagine it wouldn’t be as complicated as using an API?


You're thinking of plug-ins. Agents are for local files.
Have a look at the Feed Me plug-in.
